2025 Prayer Walks

2025 Payer Walks

Jesus said, “Go find my brothers and tell them I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God”. Heavenly Father, we ask you to gather the brethren in this region that we may encourage one another in the faith. Give us the correct mindset to secure our identity as sons and daughters of the Most High God. We call forth watchmen who affectionately and gratefully praise the Lord, who stand by night in the house of the Lord.
Jesus made a demand that we love each other. He was talking to his disciples. Forgive us Lord when we do not act in love, forgive us for being legalistic and judgmental. We repent of holding religious practice in higher regard than mercy and loving kindness. Cause us to live in harmony with each other so that the world may see and believe in Jesus, the one true Son of God.

(John 15;12,17,20:18, Psalm 134)

In 2017, ServErie took on the revitalization of Erie High School and PrayErie surrounded the building and grounds with prayer. Scripture was literally planted at all corners of the property. We stood on 3 key scriptures and declared: “Erie students will receive, by the Spirit of the Lord of Hosts, a Kingdom that cannot be shaken. They will be marked by mercy, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience” (Hebrews 12:28, Zechariah 4:6-7).
This Saturday, 9:20 at the main entrance, we will refresh those wells of living water dug eight years ago!

Prayers for Erie High students, faculty & administration

Here we are to refresh the wells of living water.

Hebrews 12:28-29 TPT “Since we are receiving our rights to an unshakable kingdom, we should be extremely thankful and offer God the purest worship that delights his heart as we lay down our lives in absolute surrender, filled with awe. For our God is a holy, devouring fire!”

Zechariah 4:6-7 TAB “Then the angel said to me, this [addition of the bowl to the candlestick, causing it to yield a ceaseless supply of oil from the olive trees] is the word of the Lord to ERIE HIGH, saying, not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit (of whom the oil is a symbol), says the Lord of hosts. For who are you, O great mountain [of human obstacles]? Before them you shall become a mere molehill!”

We used a small bowl from Israel to pour anointing oil on the ground. Representing the Spirit of the Lord. And we planted a cross imprinted with JESUS IS LORD next to the main sign.

In the spring, kings go to war for what is rightfully theirs. Discern what could encroach on your territory.

We pray the students (and faculty) of the Erie region will enter into the full redemptive plan for their lives. They will develop strategies that rightly align with Kingdom principles.

We walked the property, picking up trash and declaring Psalm 18 – This is the Hebrew month of Nissan, the month associated with the tribe of Judah, a month to lead with praise, to speak forth out thankfulness to God for our deliverance! The Passover month, to pull aside and remember where we have come from and thank him for bringing us out of the bondage of sin.

Psalm 18
18 
“I love You [fervently and devotedly], O Lord, my strength.”
The Lord is my rock, my fortress, and the One who rescues me;
My God, my rock and strength in whom I trust and take refuge;
My shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower—my stronghold.
I call upon the Lord, who is worthy to be praised; And I am saved from my enemies.

In my distress [when I seemed surrounded] I called upon the Lord
And cried to my God for help; He heard my voice from His temple,
And my cry for help came before Him, into His very ears. Then the earth shook and quaked, the foundations of the mountains trembled; They were shaken because He was indignant and angry. He reached from on high, He took me; He drew me out of many waters. He rescued me from my strong enemy, and from those who hated me, for they were too strong for me. They confronted me in the day of my disaster.

But the Lord was my support. He brought me out into a broad place;
He rescued me because He was pleased with me and delighted in me.
The Lord dealt with me according to my righteousness (moral character, spiritual integrity); According to the cleanness of my hands He has rewarded me.
For I have kept the ways of the Lord, And have not wickedly departed from my God.
For all His ordinances were before me, And I did not put away His statutes from me.
I was blameless before Him, And I kept myself free from my sin.
Therefore the Lord has rewarded me according to my righteousness (moral character, spiritual integrity), According to the cleanness of my hands in His sight. With the kind (merciful, faithful, loyal) You show Yourself kind, With the blameless You show Yourself blameless, With the pure You show Yourself pure, and with the crooked You show Yourself astute.

For You save an afflicted and humble people, but bring down those [arrogant fools] with haughty eyes. For You cause my lamp to be lighted and to shine; The Lord my God illumines my darkness. For by You I can crush a troop, and by my God I can leap over a wall. As for God, His way is [b]blameless. The word of the Lord is tested [it is perfect, it is faultless];
He is a shield to all who take refuge in Him. For who is God, but the Lord? Or who is a rock, except our God, The God who encircles me with strength and makes my way blameless? He makes my feet like [c]hinds’ feet [able to stand firmly and tread safely on paths of testing and trouble]; He sets me [securely] upon my high places. He trains my hands for war, so that my arms can bend a bow of bronze. You have also given me the shield of Your salvation, and your right hand upholds and sustains me; Your gentleness [Your gracious response when I pray] makes me great. You enlarge the path beneath me and make my steps secure,

The Lord lives, blessed be my rock; And may the God of my salvation be exalted
The God who avenges me, and subdues peoples (nations) under me.
He rescues me from my enemies; Yes, You lift me up above those who rise up against me; You deliver me from the man of violence. Therefore, will I give thanks and praise You, O Lord, among the nations, and sing praises to Your name. He gives great triumphs to His king, and shows steadfast love and mercy to His anointed,

Thank you, Lord, for bringing down the walls and giving us the city of Erie to steward.
As ambassadors of the kingdom, we declare and decree that we have dominion over the land, air, and water in this area and full authority to effect change as citizens of the kingdom.
We decree that this is a city of refuge and safety in You.
We bind up all spirits of anger, violence, and unforgiveness.
We loose a spirit of love, peace, and freedom.
We bind spirits of division and loose a spirit of unity.
We bind up spirits of addiction, dependence, and complacency.
We loose liberty and a fighting spirit in You.
We bind up spirits of poverty and lack. We loose a spirit of abundance and declare there is more than enough.
We bind up every wicked thing that comes against the laws of the land and Your Word and we loose Your light, Your Word, and Your truth.
We bind up spirits of oppression, trauma, anxiety, and depression and we loose the Spirit of Joy, and the mind of Christ.
We hold all thoughts captive to the obedience of Christ, asking for strategies to continue taking territory and we stand in the gap for this city, lifting it up for Your glory.
We bind up corruption and perversion and loose righteousness throughout the land.
We declare that the righteous reign and the people rejoice.
In the name of Jesus. AMEN.

We believe, denounce, and declare:
 In Genesis 1:26 God said, “Let us make mankind in Our image and let them have
complete authority (dominion) over the fish of the sea, the birds of the air, the tame
beasts, and over all of the earth, and over everything that creeps upon the earth.”
We believe this is the basic structure from which all else grows. Mankind is to work
together to manage the earth.
 Genesis 2:18 says, “It is not good that man should be alone.” So, God put him in the original family unit based on covenant between one man and one woman. We believe God’s purpose for the family unit is the basis of strength in any society.
 We believe also that when there is a breakdown in this structure, there is chaos. We repent for expecting the educational system to do what God intended the family to do. We repent for allowing government agencies to do what God intended the family to do. Forgive us for looking to the institutional church to do what God intended the family to do.
 We denounce and nullify all attempts of Satan to destroy God’s original intent for the family unit. Gangs that produce a false sense of family and false identity, violent child trafficking, and all destructive trends of unwed pregnancy, abortion, and divorce must end.

January 31

President Donald Trump issued a statement today saying, “Across the country today, medical professionals are maiming and sterilizing a growing number of impressionable children under the radical and false claim that adults can change a child’s sex through a series of irreversible medical interventions. This dangerous trend will be a stain on our Nation’s history, and it must end.”

The executive order is designed to protect children from chemical and surgical mutilation. Senator Josh Hawley of Missouri introduced the “Protecting Our Kids from Child Abuse Act” after the president’s executive order, which would allow lawsuits “against pediatric gender clinics and other entities pushing gender-trans.

Please pray:

  • For the president as he seeks ways to protect minors from potentially damaging procedures..
  • For Senator Hawley and members of the Senate as they consider the legislation to mitigate medical interventions on children who are unable to advocate for themselves.
  • For the Lord’s will and purposes to be accomplished in the U.S.

We call forth fathers and declare; Men’s hearts will be softened to become like little children, and disobedient minds (mind-sets) will embrace the wisdom of faith in God. God will turn and reconcile the hearts of the estranged fathers to ungodly children, and the hearts of rebellious children to the piety of their fathers, a reconciliation produced by repentance of the ungodly.
 We speak light and life to Erie children. They will be safe from harmful agendas; their innocence protected.
 We affirm biblical gender roles and invite the Fear of the Lord to visit any institution that seeks to destroy God’s design for the family
 True to God’s original intent for this land, we pray; Erie will be filled with the
knowledge of the glory of the Lord, as the waters cover the sea. Erie families will
dwell in peaceable habitation, in safe dwellings, and in quiet resting-places.
(Malachi 4:6, Habakkuk 2:4, Isaiah 32:18, Mark 9:37)
